Problem with my Troy Built lawn tractor starting.?
I have a Troy Built lawn mower that is less than a year old. I have used it year a few times. I just went out tonight to use it again and it wouldn't start, wouldn't even turn over. I used a battery charger for lawn tractors and it started clicking and the lights came on but it didn't turn over. I kept the charger on for a while longer and now the lights won't even turn on. absolutely no problems with it till tonight. Any ideas on trouble shooting so i don't get taken when I bring it in to the mechanic? Greatly apppreciate any ideas !!!!
The battery may have a short in it. Take a multi meter and measure the DC voltage of the battery. It should be over 2 volts per cell. That is if the battery has 6 cells then the voltage will be just over 12 volts DC. If there is no voltage or the voltage is less than 2 volts per cell after charging try replacing the battery.

Many gardeners are looking for easier ways of cutting the grass. Walking behind an unwieldy lawn mower is the thing of the past. Riding mowers are becoming very popular but finding the best riding lawn mowers can be a daunting task for the customer.
If there is a sprawling lawn that covers almost half an acre, then machines that are pushed from behind or walk-behind are of no use. The riding mowers make a monotonous job exciting. Most of the people, love the entire experience of cutting the grass with these machines, they make it easier, faster and a thrilling experience.
These machines are expensive, compared to other styles that are found in the market. Cutting the grass can be a cumbersome task and walking-behind or pushing the lawn mower can be even more difficult. The best ones in the market ensure high level performance and comfort and convenience to the customers.
A conventional model has a rear engine. The engine is mostly powered decently (eight to ten horse power) and is light. They, normally have a single mower blade that has a diameter of 28 to 32 inches. Some models also have blades that are 36 inches in diameter.
The maneuverability of single blade riding mower is greater than the ones with two or three blades. They have greater horsepower than the walk-behind ones. This results in reduced cutting time.
They are costlier than the walk-behind and pushing mowers. A self-propelled walk-behind mower may cost, just around $500 but an ordinary riding lawn mower costs around $1000 and the price can soar higher than $5000.
The performance of a riding lawn mower is better than other standard machines. The cutting decks are smaller in the walk-behind ones and at the same time they are wider. This allows it to undertake the task of cutting the grass, adeptly.
The selection of a mower depends on the size of the lawn. Using a walk-behind machine can hurt people physically and can make cutting the grass, an excruciating experience, if the grass covers a large area. But if we opt for the best riding lawn mower, one can ride it and enjoy the grass cutting ritual that happens every week.
